Updated: Wildfire in Luce County Seen on Satellite and Radar

Update (5/25/12):

The following two images show a look at the fire from approximately 1pm on May 25th. The image on the left is a visible image and shows the broad smoke plume pushing east across Whitefish Bay and into southern Ontario. This eastward push of the fire and the smoke was caused by winds shifting to the west-northwest this morning behind a cold front. The image on the right is a "false" color image using the same satellite. This allows the burn scar to become more visible compared to the growing vegetation (in green) surrounding the fire.
